! ? Sivelaphi, Singobani? (Xhosa) ?
Yeyiphi eyona nzala kaXhosa?
Besifudula sineeNkomo,
Bafika basinika iiBhokhwe.
Basinika iiWotshi
ekubeni besinalo ixesha.
Nani mabhinqa
Baninika iiFas'koti
phezu kwezo lokhwe.
Asingobelungu, asingobathwa,
singabahambi namaBani,
yaye siyazamkela nezi dolophu
zingqonge ezi lali
zethu zimhlab'ubomvu.
Nina nto zooBani:
oonyana neentombi zomthonyama.
Abantwana abahle kumth'omnyama
Kuhle, kuntsundu, kulungile;
wena gwala hlala ulumkile,
usothuswa nasisithunzi sakho,
De uxolele ukusipha umphako.
Wena mbhali
hlala ubalisa,
ngale mazi
isoloko isehlisa,
ngalo mthombo wegazi
Usoloko usophisa.
You are very proud about your origin hey, that inspires me. well done
